Now in its 50th year, CMA Fest is the longest-running Country Music festival in the world.

The Ultimate Country Music Fan Experience™ began in 1972 as Fan Fair®, which drew 5,000 fans to Nashville’s Municipal Auditorium. CMA Fest has become the city’s signature Country Music event that hosts tens of thousands of fans from all 50 states in the USA, Puerto Rico and 39 international countries.
